But the asking price is just ludicrous ...

Yeah, it was a no-sale. It's now on its third listing (that I know of; possibly, there have been more). The opening price has been dropped by $100, but the following cheesy note has been added: "I can't sell this for less than $800." (in all-caps, actually).

To which my reply is: "Dude, you might have to."

The more I think on it, the more I feel I cut this guy a break by not posting on the "silliest price" thread.

+++++

(and the $16.95 to ship doesn't improve my opinion, either ...)

I'm pretty close to saying it might sell better at GenCon, judging by Frank's comments, above...

Another S.E.L.W.G. Be warned pic is obviously from last auction ( seller admits it's not his copy ) and gives minimal description:

Maybe... but the seller may have bought it from me in the first place. Those expansion sets look familiar. :/

I meant to mention that Greg Stafford is selling a fair amount of his personal stuff on ebay -- including unpunched virgin first run stuff, original maps and artwork, etc. from the early days of Chaosium when it had only a single board game as a core product.

Anyway, that is something interesting, non-TSR, some of it very old.

Regards,

Stephen

Any chance of a link? eBay won't accept a seach for seller Greg Stafford.

This week I've been mostly eating . . . The white ones with the little red flecks in them.

Here is the first I could find.

Marvel Collectors Items: 1956-1969 (Silver Age) | eBay

Greg, of course, used one of his favorite names.

I should have looked at the listing. More to come.

His e-mail (on the heroquest list) is [email protected] in case anyone has some questions for him.

Regards,

Stephen

You are right - you know now I think of it, there are some items I am watching that almost certainly contain traces of Bird Flu.

I cannot think of Buffalo Castle without hearing it as the title of a Bob Marley song.
